3401 Caldwell Dr, Raleigh, NC 27607

A property chosen and sited by the original owner, a surveyor for the neighborhood, this remarkable opportunity is not only house, but also lot and location. Good bones are not just for Halloween, they are good year round and this one is perfect for a reawakening. Gently sloping, the property includes a flat drive on the high side with integrated carport, otherwise it is lush, landscaped and explodes with color each spring. Native azaleas, english boxwoods, rhododendron and a native Hemlock are a few of the gems. Front and rear both contain brick planter boxes and a covered front stoop with irregular slate extending to the foyer Deep eaves have protected this house through the decades, with the current owners having occupancy since '88. Originally a 4 bedroom main level ranch, it now has one larger primary bedroom, ready with abundant room to be reimagined into a proper primary suite. Cedar cladding outside is balanced by site-built wood cabinetry and pine ceilings, vaulted in all larger main floor rooms. An easy walk to the NC Museum of Art, the greenway, or across to Lake Boone Trail Shopping.
